With all the tickets sold out at Cargo, I’m wondering why on earth I missed him at Benji B’s Deviation session in September. Not to worry as everyone is going to be hearing and seeing lots more of the latest in the line of hot beat meisters.

Vienna’s Dorian Concept (aka Oliver Thomas Johnson) is the king of the beat tapes and he’s been earmarked as the next Flying Lotus, Dabyre et al. Mamiko has been raving about him for some time that resulted in Kindred Spirits releasing a limited edition 12” late last year. Before the album, there’s a Dorian Concept remix
package and whilst on the subject of Flylo/Dabyre, you’ll remember the Flylo remix of ‘Game Over’ on the Get Dirty 12”, so here’s another version. Now you just can’t do a ‘Mesh Beam Splitter’ on ‘Game Over’ but sticking with Phat Kat and Dilla’s favourite rapper, Guity Simpson, gets an update.

Talking of back in the hip-hop day, Three 6 Mafia’s ‘Stay Fly’ gets a leftfield make over but the one to catch is the bleep-funk offa Jamie Lidell’s ‘A Little Bit Of Feel Good’ - Oh! Those smokey skies have never sounded better.

Only Gilles could fit in the likes of Jazzanova (with there first ever live show with the album Of All The Things to follow), the brilliant Robert Mitchell 3IO (check the album The Greater Good and Quiet Village to name just three on the bill but the word is Dorian Concept is the hottest of them all!
